Are you able to meditate?

With your voices or loud thoughts?

I don’t have voices, but my thoughts are very loud.

It’s a real uphill battle.

Same for me. I feel like I constantly have to distract myself from my own thoughts. Meditation is not something I can do, as I can’t calm my brain down.

I have difficulties meditating.

Guided meditation is easier.

I was listening to Louise hay love yourself and love it but the part on understanding and forgiving your parents and seeing their inner child etc I was a bit over that part so I stopped listening.

Because I may have other parents on another level who love me more.

I have a complicated relationship with parti had but I do love them unconditionally and love them dearly but I’m just over hearing about it daily and comfort your father as a little boy etc same with mother.

Ha ha ha ha ha

Maybe i should listen to Louise hay again.

I believe in her beliefs mostly.
Maybe not always and entirely but most part reckon I do.

Think she’s concidered new age.

I have done silent meditation ten minutes after yoga but never got into a trance or sacred feeling state.
Sometimes I was uncomfortable .
When I was more comfortable I still didn’t enjoy it much.

My mum swears by meditation and yoga but I never got into it much.
Didn’t get into yoga much either.

Except if I had a instructor I was comfortable with I could get into yoga perhaps with included meditation.
That would probably do me good for my spiritual and mental good health.

Maybe I will listen to Louise hay again.

It is free on YouTube.

She says a lot of beautiful words that I believe in and that are good for development to hear often.

I have attacks of “loud thoughts” too, its very similar to when people talk about voices. My loud thought/voices are very hostile to me.

I am really sorry i dont have the ability to meditate anymore, maybe i should try a guided mediation online, its easier.

The main obstacle for me are my delusional thoughts. If I am having a good day where I’m rooted in reality, then that is probably a good time for me to meditate. Otherwise I get drawn in to delusions that disturb my peace and take over my mental processes. I tend to use guided meditations, though, so a word can come in that triggers me and sends me into a spiral if I’m not in the right place.

My loud thoughts don’t interfere with my ability to meditate. I struggle with the notion of whether I have the right to meditate.

I did walking meditation today. You just pay close attention to your body movements and you usually walk slower than normal.

I can meditate to an extent. It took along time to be able to do it in a limited capacity.

I meditate a few times a week. A quiet place is important for meditation. What I do is focus on my breathing the just try to think of nothingness. Whatever I hear I try to think of the sound as if I’m not in existence. Just the world going on. If my mind strays, I try to let go of any thoughts. It sounds weird and stupid, but it is somehow calming. I also keep my eyes closed. Afterwards I feel relaxed and less worry. It offers some sense of relief for me.
